Talk:Rutherford Chang

Notability

The author had earlier removed a notability flag and cited the two sources as being enough. I added more information to the article based on one of the sources, but I do question if there is enough for notability. I've seen articles go through AfD with more substance than this one currently has. Should probably see if there are other sources to help establish notability.

• ... that in 2008, artist Rutherford Chang collected around 4,000 ink-dot portraits from The Wall Street Journal and reorganized them alphabetically into a yearbook-style publication?

• Source: "In 2008, he clipped about 4,000 ink-dot portraits from The Wall Street Journal, then reassembled them in alphabetical order into a yearbook-like publication he called “The Class of 2008.” He repeated several portraits; Barack Obama, who was elected president of the United States that year, appears 94 times, and John McCain, his Republican opponent, appears 74 times."
